Activation of dinitrogen plays an important role in daily anthropogenic life, and the processes
by which this fixation occurs have been a longstanding and significant research focus within …

The activation and functionalization of carbon dioxide entails great interest related to its
abundance, low toxicity and associated environmental problems. However, the inertness of …

Developing an efficient catalyst for the electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (CO2RR) is
highly desired because of environmental and energy issues. Herein, we report a single …

Electrochemical reduction of CO 2 to value-added multicarbon products has been limited by
the inefficiency of the C–C coupling process on Cu. Coupling metal oxides with Cu surfaces …

Reaction of the geminal PAl ligand [Mes2PC ( CHPh) Al t Bu2](1) with [Pt (PPh3) 2
(ethylene)] affords the T-shape Pt complex [(1) Pt (PPh3)](2). X-ray diffraction analysis and …

The catalytic conversion of CO2 into valuable chemicals and fuels has attracted increasing
attention, providing a promising route for mitigating the greenhouse effect of CO2 and also …

The electrochemical reduction of carbon dioxide (EC CO2RR) is a promising technology to
achieve a carbon‐neutral society. EC CO2RR can directly convert the greenhouse gas …

Pincer‐type nickel–aluminum complexes were synthesized using two equivalents of the
phosphinoamide,[PhNCH2PiPr2]−. The Ni0–AlIII complexes,{(MesPAlP) Ni} 2 (μ‐N2) and …

The ability to bind CO2 through the formation of low-energy, easily-broken, bonds could
prove invaluable in a variety of chemical contexts. For example, weak bonds to CO2 would …

Bimetallic motifs mediate the selective activation and functionalization of CO2 in
metalloenzymes and some recent synthetic systems. In this work, we build on the nascent …
